Why I Do What I Do:
Marketing management was originally an opportunistic endeavor for me, but I learned to be keenly interested in it because it is all about problem-solving, employs a myriad of disciplines, and is a way in which I can interact with and help other people. I especially like that it has resulted in my developing other loves—writing, researching, business coaching, and design management.
